In fact, the taste and environment are really good. Although the waiters seemed to be in a panic and it was almost self-service, I still enjoyed the meal because the soup base was good and the dishes were relatively fresh. I forgave everything else, haha.
In the city center, parking is convenient, the taste is OK, the environment is average

📝Note tips:
1. Plateau sun protection: Xichang has strong ultraviolet rays, so sunscreen, sunglasses, and hats are essential.
2. Large temperature difference: It is cooler in the morning and evening, and you need to bring a coat in summer.
3. Respect folk customs: In Yi ethnic group settlements, avoid taking random photos of local elderly people or religious places.
4. Best season: All seasons are suitable, watch migratory birds from November to March, jacaranda blooms in April and May, and escape the summer heat in July and August.
I hope this guide can allow you to fully experience the lakes and mountains, aerospace charm and Yi customs of Xichang! If you have other needs, you can add and adjust at any time~
🌸Sisters! The jacaranda trees in Xichang have started to rain purple. If you don’t come to take pictures, you will have to wait until next year! 📸Catch the end of the flowering season and see the purple sea of flowers~🌺
But the charm of Xichang is not just the sea of flowers! There are also many delicious foods here🍗. This foodie has measured Xichang with his stomach and compiled this "food map that will make you walk with your hands on the wall"📋. Hurry up and save it!

Hot Pot
From AU$ 16.00
Torch Square/Qionghai Resort | 3 km from downtown
Address: No. 81 Chuncheng East Road
Verified User Reviews
The fish head of Qionghai is made with the base sauce prepared according to the taste of Xichang people. The amount is proportioned according to the number of heads, which is not biased. The taste is rich but not greasy. After cooking a pot of fish head, scoop a large piece into the bowl and gently scrape it. The fish lips and gills are separated, tender and spicy. Fresh rabbit heads are first braised and then fried with Xichang handmade chili powder. You can experience its fragrance when eating them together with the chili powder.
I traveled to Xichang with my friends. I didn’t know what to eat during lunch time, so I thought about eating hot pot again. I found this fish hot pot nearby and tried it with the mentality of giving it a try. For locals, Said, this store is quite good, I like the decoration style. It is mid-to-high-end. I ordered the three-pound big fish head. It tastes very good, spicy and numb, and the taste is also very good. , a great place for friends to gather!

The barbecue at the fire pit is completely self-service, but there is a plate of oil on it. I don't know what it is for. Later, the staff introduced that the oil is used to fry beef. The beef tastes particularly fragrant after frying.
In addition, there are several special snacks that must be ordered here, such as the snow cake-like thing made of snow in Figure 4. I also forgot the name, but it tastes good! And the small tofu here, which is baked until golden yellow, must not be missed. It is a must-order dish to remove oil and greasiness.
There are several must-eat delicacies in Xichang, one of which is drunken shrimp, and the fire pot barbecue is another must-eat.
Under the guidance of a friend, we came to this restaurant. We obviously came a little early, and the guests in the restaurant have not yet arrived, but it is also very good to have a fire pot to ourselves.
The key to eating fire pot barbecue is the seasoning. There are two types of seasonings here, one is a wet sauce made of soy sauce and other seasonings, and the other is a dry sauce made of chili. After eating both seasonings, I personally prefer the dry one because it doesn't taste so salty, and the most important thing is that the chili taste is particularly strong.

It is really awesome, authentic brazier and barbecue. The key is that for those of us who can't grill, it is great to have a little sister to help. Compared with other big places in Xichang, the service is not so good.
Roasted beef tendon, roasted rice noodle sausage, roasted river shrimp, roasted pork belly, roasted beef, there are few dishes, but the taste and ingredients are really good, the first three are especially recommended. This is the first time I try roasted Houttuynia cordata, I think this is the specialty of Xichang, I used to be good friends with Xichang brothers, they would boil Houttuynia cordata in water and eat it with a dip, vinegar and chili as a dip can remove all the fishy smell of Houttuynia cordata, if you don't believe me, you can try it, it tastes great.

I went to Xichang specifically to eat the fire pot barbecue. The taste was good and very unique. A group of people had a great time eating. It was on the roadside, easy to find. There were many dishes to help yourself. It was interesting. I really liked the little pork. You can try it.
I went to have a barbecue yesterday. The beef belly and coated tofu were particularly delicious, the squid loin and squid throat were also good, and the grilled eggplant was also good.

I have been eating tilapia from this restaurant since I was a child. It is really delicious. I strongly recommend the pickled pepper one. It is so delicious. I often go there to eat it.
The fish that is well made (✪▽✪) has few bones and thick and plump meat🌸

The first photo is the grilled crucian carp introduced by a friend. It costs 20 yuan per piece and is killed alive. The second photo is the grilled eggplant for 12 yuan. It tastes good. The grilled pork belly tastes good too, but I forgot to take photos. The last two photos are radish, potato and sauerkraut soup. Radish is a local dish and it is difficult to chew after a while.
The taste is super good, the boss is very enthusiastic, and it is very close to the Qionghai Beach. The pork belly is worthy of being the signature dish. It is great to eat it wrapped in lettuce, fat but not pinched. There is also the drunken shrimp, which is alive and kicking, and the sour and spicy feeling is especially good.
